COUNTRY: BERMUDA
PROGRAM: BACHELOR OF ARTS (CRIMINOLOGY AND JUSTICE),
CLASS OF 2014
I chose to attend UOIT for the variety ofprograms it had, which includes my major
in Criminology and Justice. My personal
research about UOIT found there was an
ever-increasing number of international
students joining the university and this
was important to me, having never been to
Canada. I nd everyone at this university
to be so accommodating and so kind to me
that I never had a worry or a care. After
graduation, I plan to move back to my
home country of Bermuda and pursue
my dream career as a parole and
probation ofcer.

When I Googled Automotive Engineering,
UOIT came up on the top of the list for
Canadian institutions. I was fascinated
with the program throughout my ve
years and I was able to graduate with
management courses and my passion,
automotive engineering. I am so excited
about the opportunities here at UOIT with
the opening of the largest climatic wind
tunnel in the world, I have chosen to
continue my graduate studies here.

ACTIVITIES: STUDENT ASSOCIATION VICE-PRESIDENT,
UNIVERSITY AFFAIRS
I like UOIT because it quenches my thirst
for volunteering. In the previous year I
was an active member of various clubs
on campus like the Muslim and Pakistan
Student Associations and the Engineering
Society. I can refresh myself by playing
cricket, tennis, squash and even ice skating
at the Campus Ice Centre (which I recently
learned). Last year I achieved a memorable
milestone in my life as a winning candidate
in the Student Association elections. In
short, my rst year at UOIT provided me
every reason to cheer academically and
socially!

I came to UOIT because the university is
new and offers really creative programs
in the Faculty of Business and Information
Technology, such as Game Development
and Entrepreneurship. How unique is
that! These new academic-based course
offerings, creative teaching methodologies
in programs and emphasis on teamwork
will help me to succeed in the business
